That Country-A might not know about this yet, or that you still have the passport, doesn't matter.

You don't specify A, nor do you describe which citizenships you acquired how, but I think you might have a bigger problem on your hands than you suspect, and may have self-revoked your A citizenship.
Countries like the U.S. and Canada and such don't tell other governments about a person if he acquires citizenship from them and the home country doesn't usually know unless it's someone famous.
